Work Performance Information

Work Performance Information is the input and output of the PMBOK processes. When Work Performance Data is collected in the monitoring and controlling process, it is analyzed in the context of the process, events, situation, etc. After this, we get some insight, we can conclude some meaning from it. We come to know whether it is good for the project, bad for the project, or it can be ignored. Now it is called Work Performance Information. We can make decisions, take action based on this analyzed data. Examples of the work performance information (WPI) are as follows.
